First sentence: If we had only the story of Lot's life as it is told in the book of Genesis, we would never have imagined that Lot was a true believer.
Description: In this book, R. Kent Hughes builds a case for godliness in the church-a case that echoes the biblical call to holiness. The church can reach the world only if it keeps itself from being ensnared by the world. Hughes is not simply urging Christians to say no to worldliness-he is calling the church to say yes to Christ and to his call to reach our lost world.
